Crafted with precision and elegance, the ‘Roc Solare’ Extra Brut 1er Cru from Dhondt-Grellet is a Chardonnay-driven Champagne, lifted by a touch of Pinot Noir. Sourced from 40-year-old vines in the Côte de Sézanne, these mature plots lend the wine remarkable depth and layered complexity.
After a meticulous hand harvest, fermentation takes place in both stainless steel and oak barrels over eight months. The final blend includes reserve wines and undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle, followed by 25 months of aging on lees — all in the traditional méthode champenoise.
In the glass, it pours a pale straw yellow with a fine, persistent mousse. Aromas of crisp apple, citrus zest, and toasted hazelnut rise from the glass. The palate is bone-dry and creamy, with vibrant acidity and a clean, mineral finish.
Perfect as a refined aperitif, this Champagne shines solo or paired with delicate starters, a beautiful way to open any occasion with style.
